I have played millions of hands of chemin de fer. I began sneaking into the gambling halls when I was still underage. I have gambled on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. Given all that I have still spent a lot of money at vingt-et-un. The gambling halls have made it nearly impossible to defeat the house.
I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, nonetheless you will have a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that chemin de fer appears to be a match of streaks. When you are on fire your on fire, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I lose I wager the table minimum on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial bet again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I succeed again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of 4 times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I lose I return the action back down to the original sum.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely exciting sometimes. If you succeed at a few hands in sequence your bets go up very fast. Before you realize it you are wagering $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a number of times now. I left a $5 table at the Venetian a few years back with $750 after 60 minutes using this tactic! And a couple of months ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You need to comprehend that you can give up a lot faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be aghast at the streaks you see betting this way. Here is a guide of what you would wager if you kept winning at a five dollar table.
Bet 5 dollar
Take five dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial five dollar wager
Bet five dollar
Leave $5 paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Wager 10 dollar
Take ten dollar paid-out to you, leave the first ten dollar bet
Wager 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager $20
Take twenty dollar paid to you, leave the first $20 wager
Wager twenty dollar
Leave $20 paid-out to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Wager 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the first forty dollar wager
Wager forty dollar
Leave $40 paid-out to you for a total bet of 80 dollar
Bet eighty dollar
Take 80 dollar paid to you, leave the original $80 bet
Bet $80
Leave eighty dollar paid to you for a total bet of 160 dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take one hundred and sixty dollar paid-out to you, leave the first 160 dollar wager
If you left at this point you would be up 315 dollar !!
It is herculean to go on a run this long, but it will happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and lower your wager or the final result will not be the same.
